I was checking these out on the BSC website to see where some of our players stood. I noticed that they have some stupid rules for who qualifies. 3 point shooting % requires 2.5 made 3s per game. Only 4 players are listed. Overall shooting % requires 5 made FG per game, and only 13 are listed, including some "leaders" who are shooting under 40%. :doh

You know you aren't shocked to see Jesse Sanders at #3 in assists in the conference, but #8 overall in rebounding? :bowdown

In conference play, Jesse is 5th in rebounding, and averaging over 7 a game.

And actually, I wasn't shocked about that either. :wink:

I haven't looked, but I wonder if a Winthrop player is even in the top 10 of any category...maybe steals?

OK you lazy Eagle....

Buechert #6 in rebounds at 6.9 a game

Robinson #5 in FT percentage at .775

Middleton #6 in steals at 1.83 a game

don't feel so bad....you don't see many G-W players in there either.....

Apart from Jesse, LU doesn't show up much either, which is what got me peeved about their too-high standards for qualifying in categories that are supposed to measure effeciency, not volume. Antwan should be near the top in FG% and Jeremy in 3PT%. They are in effect just showing the leading scorers, shuffled around by shooting %, not the most effecient shooters. And yes, I do understand there needs to be a minimum number to qualify so you don't have a scrub who's 1 for 1 on the season leading the league, but when only 4 or 5 players in the entire conference qualify in a category, that number is just too high.
